Storyboards are an essential part of pre-production. They allow video producers to visualise the video before stepping on set.

Each person interprets a script differently – no matter how many adjectives you throw at them and that’s why storyboards are a great way to ensure everyone is on the same page before shooting starts. The last thing you’d want is a disappointed client because a video doesn’t look as they had expected when they read the script.

A storyboard takes the guesswork away from the client and visually scripts the video.

Storyboards show what the final product will look like – and if you don’t like anything it’s really easy to make changes at this stage.

At first the storyboard will be rough, either drawn or digital.The storyboard generally gives the client a pretty good idea of what to expect

Storyboards are a great visual tool for the client, but they are also really helpful for the people producing the video. With storyboards, you’ll know exactly what you’ll be shooting before you have actually done it. It’s much easier to make any changes at this stage than later on, so storyboards are a great way to plan a project.
